I own nothing Harry Potter!

Here you go, the morning after the party. I just want to warn you that we are approaching the end of the story. I am thinking there will only be about five chapters left, possibly one or two more. I am seriously considering doing a sequel though, so if you want one let me know! If I have a good enough response of people interested in a sequel I will definitely write one!

Thanks for reading and enjoy!

Hermione POV

I woke up the morning after the Slytherin party and like so many mornings before I was in Draco's bed. His arms were wrapped around my torso holding me close as he slept. I rolled over in his arms and placed a quick kiss to his perfect pink lips, that was all it took to wake him up.

His eyelids fluttered and soon I was staring into gorgeous grey eyes. A smile tugged on his lips as he took me in. "Good morning babe," he murmurs as he pulls me closer to his chest and nuzzles his head into my hair. He is awfully adorable and sweet in the mornings.

"Good morning," I smile into his chest. "I love waking up in your arms," I say as I cuddle closer. I never would have pegged Draco for a cuddler, but he definitely was.

"I love waking up with you in my arms," he whispers into my hair, his voice still rough from sleep.

I place a kiss to his bare chest before I pull back so I can look in his grey eyes. "I really love what we have Draco. You're amazing and I honestly don't know what I'd do with out you," I say quietly, chewing on my bottom lip as I wait for his response. I don't want to scare him with the overly mushy things that I want to say to him, but I'm in love and I can't help it.

"I feel the same way Princess," Draco smiles as he leans forwards to capture my lips in a slow emotion filled kiss. I really love Draco's little nicknames for me, it makes me all warm and fuzzy inside. When his lips finally leave mine Draco looks into my eyes and says, "I have big plans for us this weekend, so leave your calendar open." His gaze is warm and comforting as he says this.

"What type of plans?" I ask, my heart skipping a beat at the thought of spending the weekend with Draco, alone.

"I can't tell you that other wise it wouldn't be a surprise," he smiles down at me. "But I can tell you it's something that I should have done along time ago," he gives me a quick peck on the lips.

My mind is racing with possibilities, but I don't push the topic anymore. I can tell he wants it to be a surprise and as much as I don't like surprises I'm going to let him do this his way. The tone of his voice makes me believe it's something important, maybe something that I've been meaning to do for a long time to like tell him I love him. Maybe this weekend will be the perfect time for that.

I reach up and run a hand over Draco's lightly stubbled jawline and give him another quick kiss before I move away from him. "We should go check on everyone and see if Ron and Pansy finally took matters into their own hands," I sigh as I start to get out of his bed.

Draco's grey eyes follow my body as I move around the room, finding something to wear. He just nods in agreement as I take my dress from last night and put it back on. Magic is a wonderful thing, I transform the dress into something more suited for the morning after and I look like a completely different person than last night.

"Are you coming?" I ask as I look back at the bed and see Draco still hasn't moved at all.

"Yeah, give me a minute," Draco nods as he runs a hand through his already mess locks.

I just smile at him and walk over to stand next to the bed. I lean down and capture his lips in a kiss, the most heated kiss we've shared all morning. As he starts to try to pull me onto the bed to join him, I start to pull away. His lips chase after mine and as I keep backing up he keeps following. Soon enough he is out of bed and standing as he cups my face in his hands. I pull back and give him one last kiss as I smile up at him, "You're out of bed now." My teasing smile has him groaning in frustration as he realizes what I just did.

"I'm going to get you back for that one," Draco tries to sound mad, but he fails. He leans down and gives me one last soft kiss before pulling away and going to get dressed. I know it was probably a little mean to use my lips to get him out of bed sooner, but the kiss itself was totally worth it.

"Let's go," Draco takes my hand when he's done getting dressed and leads me out of his room and down the steps. When we get to the common room we find a few people from last night scattered about on the couches. In the corner there are Blaise and Ginny talking and laughing along with Harry and Luna, who also apparently spent the night. It was great seeing the two of them together.

"Have you seen Ron and Pansy yet?" I ask as we join the group of our friends.

"Not yet, but I know Ron never left last night so that's a good sign," Ginny laughs, raising her eyebrows suggestively. I roll my eyes at her, it's like she doesn't care that she's talking about her brother hooking up with someone.

Draco takes a seat on the couch and pulls me down onto his lap, I cuddle into his chest as I ask Harry and Luna, "Are you two finally together?"

"Yes, we are," Harry smiles holding up their entwined hands.

"Aren't they adorable?" Ginny pipes up with an excited smile.

"Of course they are," I smile in agreement.

"So how was your night?" Ginny asks Draco and I, her eyebrows waggling again.

"Yeah, you guys disappeared almost as quickly as Ron and Pansy," Blaise teases.

"It was great," I smile, not wanting to reveal too much of our night. It was damn amazing to be honest, it may have been one of our best nights together.

"It was fucking amazing," Draco rephrases my previous statement and I playfully hit him at his vulgarity. He just shrugs his shoulders as he looks down at me. His expression seems to say, Sorry I'm not sorry.

We all fall into a conversation until Ginny whispers, "Here they come." I whip my head around to see Ron and Pansy coming down the steps, hand in hand smiling like idiots. It looks like last night went better than planned.

As they reach us Ginny says, "So, how was last night?" We all look on as we eagerly wait for their response.

Ron just blushes and mumbles something that is unintelligible, Pansy on the other hand retorts with, "Wouldn't you like to know." The look on both of their faces tells us exactly what happened last night.

They brush off any other questions about last night as they sit down in our little circle, but it's obvious that they are now together. Ron seems so happy, which means that he isn't going to go back on what he said earlier. He's going to back off while I enjoy my relationship with Draco. I am happy that he found someone too because then I don't feel as bad about not picking him. In all honest though, there is no doubt in my mind that Ron and I would never have had a relationship beyond friendship. I just didn't feel the same way about his as I did Draco. I loved Ron like a brother, while I loved Draco in a completely different way that I couldn't even describe.

Now that Draco and I were going to be able to have a relationship without any interruptions I knew it was time to tell him exactly how I felt. During this weekend he had planned for us I was going to tell him everything. I was going to finally tell him I loved him. Now all I have to do was get through the next week. That shouldn't be too hard, right?

Thanks for reading and I'd love to know what you think! Who would be interested in reading a sequel to this story?
